My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Introducing Bucky, a dynamic and intelligent pup in need of a dedicated handler to help him reach his full potential. Bucky is working on, with ongoing efforts focused on patience at the food bowl and leash manners. While he thrives with lower-energy dogs, he can be more competitive with high-energy or dominant counterparts, though his nose often leads the way, showing little interest in other pups when on a scent.

Bucky's keen sense of smell suggests he'd excel in tracking or agility activities, and he's already showing promise on the treadmill. With a firm yet patient approach, Bucky eagerly responds to positive reinforcement and craves mental stimulation. Affectionate but still learning boundaries, he benefits from consistent reminders about respecting personal space. Bucky's food drive makes him a quick learner, but he'll need continued practice with mealtime patience and impulse control.

However, Bucky's true calling lies beyond the confines of a house. He thrives best as an outdoor dog, where he can fully embrace his instincts and utilize his exceptional scenting abilities. Given his natural talents and high energy, Bucky would excel in roles such as scent work, barn hunt, or hunting. These activities provide him with the mental and physical stimulation he craves, allowing him to channel his energy into productive endeavors.

While Bucky may not do well as a domesticated animal inside a house, he is ready and willing to thrive in an outdoor environment where he can lead an active and purpose-driven life. If you're seeking a loyal companion for outdoor adventures and scent-oriented pursuits, Bucky is the perfect match for you.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We find loving, responsible, committed permanent homes. An in-depth adoption process is used. This includes taking considerable care in finding perfect matches and educating potential adopters about the responsibilities of bringing a dog, especially that particular dog, into their life. Applications may take several days to process and you may not hear from a UU Board member for up to a few weeks at most.

More about this rescue

Unforgettable Underdogs Dog Rescue is a volunteer run non-profit and no-kill dog rescue serving Northeast Wisconsin. We are dedicated to rescuing the underdogs, those who have found themselves homeless. We strive to help dogs in public high-kill shelters, abandoned or dogs being abused or neglected.

Dogs we care for are spayed or neutered, treated for any medical needs they have, and placed into loving foster homes until they find their permanent home. We aim to help dogs in need without discriminating against age or breed as space in foster homes permit. As our finances allow, we aim to take on the most underdog of the cases and help dogs in the most need.
